OBJECTIVES Measurement of the incidence of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is very important for epidemiological studies. Here, we determined the recency period with the AxSYM avidity assay and the BED-capture enzyme immunoassay (BED-CEIA) in Korean seroconverters. METHODS Two hundred longitudinal specimens from 81 seroconverters with incident HIV infections that had been collected at ...

Countering claims that recency effects observed at different time scales arise from a common forgetting process, Davelaar et al. (2005) presented a number of experimental dissociations between shortand long-term recency. They used these dissociations to argue that separate mechanisms underlie shortand long-term recency. Here we show that the temporal context model (TCM), which assumes that both...

In the framework of animal conditioning and human associative learning, primacy and recency effects on acquired stimulus control of behavior refer to the superior influence of first-learned and last-learned associations, respectively. Most contemporary associative models of learning anticipate unwavering recency effects and claim support from numerous published studies. But, for pragmatic reaso...

The objective was to quantify the incidence of tarsal lesions and level of hygiene by stall bed type. Cows were scored on 100 dairies from Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Iowa, and New York in the fall and winter. Thirty-eight dairies used rubber-filled mattresses (RFM), 27 had sand beds, 29 had waterbeds, and 6 used compost packs (CPk). Stocking density, stall dimensions, bedding amount, beddin...

The energy recovery and utilization of high-pressure brine are the key to reduce cost. Reducing flow rate method (RFM) was put forward firstly adapt pump as turbine (PAT) a wide range operating conditions in this paper. In order validate advantages new method, three different designs PAT were obtained, respectively, based on methods, which were, selection design curved RFM. Based numerical exte...

ABSTRACT: Due to the development of spatial resolution, spectral resolution and multi-image tasking of high-resolution satellite images, the generation of digital surface model (DSM) from high-resolution satellite images becomes an important and practical application. Nowadays, different image matching approaches such as global matching and semi-global matching has been developed to obtain dens...

Recency and repetition are two factors that have large effects on human memory performance. One way of viewing the beneficial impact of these variables on recognition memory is to assume that both factors modulate a unidimensional memory trace strength. Although previous functional neuroimaging studies have indicated that recency and repetition may modulate similar brain structures, particularl...
